Like much of the world (sold out in Germany until October!), i too have iPhone fever. My bag is ALWAYS stretched to capacity, and so far this little device has taken quite a load out.
You know those '90's ads and magazine spreads on the handbag contents of famous people? The kind where where they would have the trendy selection of a token key or two in a designer holder, and a lipstick and a credit card ? Well even if i was famous, i would have never been approached. My bag contents were always too heavily (really heavily) Maximalist for such a streamlined modern world as the mid-'90's, and as such, my bag of choice would always be substantial.
Enter the iphone, and suddenly i can afford to be without the camera, ipod, phone, book, notebook, diary and GPS system (ok, so i didn't keep this in my bag when i was walking to work , but it's cool that i've got it now). If only i could get out the jail warden size key set,nappies, tissues, and baby wipes i could almost be cool enough for a bag spread.

Odette's Opening Night
So now the website is all sparkling and new, we are ready to unveil our new collection, "Odette's Opening Night"
This is Antlerina Odette, perched on her trunks, awaiting admirers. She has been artfully brought to life by the talented Crystal A Suh http://homepages.nyu.edu/~cas361
She is so charming, I've also bought over her entourage - as you can see on our homepage.
Odette is very much a creature of the centre stage, and evokes Fin de Siecle Paris, when captivating women were emerging like mythical creatures from the shadows. For a small figure without much facial detail, she manages to be beautiful, and somewhat aloof. Since the closest I get to sewing is putting a safety pin in a hem, I'm amazed such expression can come from a few artfully placed stitches.
Like bower-birds, ardent admirers have strewn at her feet the finest of jewels, crafted from 18ct Rose Gold and Platinum. Many of the pieces are embellished with bouquets and garlands that befit a queen of the stage. Intricate hand-engraving appeals to the Star's love of adornment, but the clean lines of the jewellery are for a modern Siren.
